Let's go: Colombian-inspired arepas revisited

Tampa, Fla. (WFLA) – Vamos corn arepas stand out for their unique and flavorful toppings, offering a variety of proteins, cheeses and sauces. Each bite offers a taste inspired by Colombia’s rich culinary traditions.

Nicolas Gomez and his wife Melinda, both with experience in the restaurant and hospitality industries, began their journey selling arepas at the local farmers market. Their passion and expertise allowed them to grow from a humble stand to a trailer, and now they proudly serve their creations from a spacious food truck.

Originally from Bogotá, Gomez has his heart set on the “Colombian Beef” arepa. He believes the secret to their success lies in the freshness of the ingredients. While all of their arepas are popular, the “Steak and Chimichurri” arepa has become a customer favorite, standing out for its bold flavors.

The Vamos menu is a mosaic of flavors, offering something for everyone. Some of the standout options include the “Tampa,” an homage to the classic Cuban sandwich, and the spicy chipotle chicken, among others.

Don’t forget to visit “Vamos” on their social media pages for their most up-to-date schedule.
